I've got
a problem that's puzzling
me:
What happens to
XML comments when then appear above the document node, but after the XML
processing instruction (and/or DOCTYPE line)?
My intuition would
tell me that since comments can't exist outside of a document, they are
ignored. The reality is (at least in Xerces) that these aren't dropped but
rather persist in the DOM document somewhere.
I'd like to be
able to get at these comment nodes and change/remove them.
If I parse a
document containing "heading comments" with the DOMParser and then serialize the
document
produced by
DOMParser.getDocument(), I end up with the same comments still in
tact.
Is this supposed
to happen? Since they're kept, is there some way I can add comments before
the document node?
Thank
you.
